Levocetirizine, sold under the brand name Xyzal, is a second-generation antihistamine used to treat allergic rhinitis and chronic idiopathic urticaria. It is available as an oral tablet or solution, typically taken once daily in the evening. Common side effects include drowsiness, dry mouth, and sore throat. Serious side effects like allergic reactions and kidney problems can also occur if dosage exceeds recommended limits.
Levocetirizine has rapid absorption, high bioavailability, and is minimally metabolised. Levocetirizine is a white-coloured solid that is freely soluble in water, soluble in ethanol and methanol, and insoluble in acetone and methylene chloride. Its dosage varies by age, with adults and children over 12 usually taking a 5 mg tablet. Levocetirizine should be used cautiously in those with kidney issues or the elderly.
The manufacturing process for levocetirizine (Xyzal) begins with the synthesis of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), levocetirizine dihydrochloride. The starting materials, p-chlorobenzhydrylamine and N, N-dichloroethyl-4-methoxybenzenesulfonamide, are charged into a reactor and heated to reflux at around 80-90°C for 10 hours. The resulting reaction product, (R)-[2-[4-[(4-chlorophenyl) phenylmethyl]-1-piperazinyl] ethoxy] acetic acid, is then treated with 30% HBr/acetic acid to remove the p-toluenesulfonyl protecting group. The levocetirizine dihydrochloride is purified to contain less than 0.1% of any individual impurity, as analysed by HPLC and chiral HPLC.
The purified levocetirizine dihydrochloride is then used in the formulation of Xyzal tablets and oral solution. For the tablet formulation, the API is combined with excipients like microcrystalline cellulose, lactose monohydrate, colloidal anhydrous silica, and magnesium stearate. The tablet is then film-coated with Hypromellose, titanium dioxide, and macrogol 400. For the oral solution, the levocetirizine dihydrochloride is formulated with excipients like sodium acetate, acetic acid, maltitol solution, glycerine, and preservatives like methyl and propyl parahydroxybenzoates.

Raw Materials:
1. Cetirizine (C21H25ClN2O3)
2. Chiral resolving agent (e.g., L-tartaric acid)
Step 1: Synthesis of Cetirizine
Cetirizine is synthesised from 4-chlorobenzhydryl piperazine and ethyl 2-(2-chlorophenyl)-2-hydroxyacetate.
Chemical Reaction: C13H12ClN + C10H13NO3 → C21H25ClN2O3
Step 2: Chiral Resolution of Cetirizine
The racemic mixture of cetirizine is resolved using a chiral resolving agent such as L-tartaric acid to obtain levocetirizine.
Chemical Reaction: C21H25ClN2O3 + C4H6O6 → Levocetirizine + Dextrocetirizine
The global levocetirizine market is driven by the increasing prevalence of allergic rhinitis and chronic urticaria. Levocetirizine, sold under the brand name Xyzal, is particularly effective in managing the symptoms of allergic rhinitis, such as watery eyes, runny nose, and sneezing. Levocetirizine is also used to treat long-term hives of unclear cause.
North America is the largest consumer of levocetirizine globally. In 2017, the US FDA approved an over-the-counter preparation of levocetirizine, expanding its availability and accessibility. Additionally, the availability of generic formulations has made levocetirizine more affordable, further driving its adoption. As the prevalence of allergic disorders continues to rise, the demand for levocetirizine is expected to grow.
